Nouruz firas för att välkomna våren och solens återkomst av perser, azerier, kurder, balucher, pashtuner, tadzjiker, zazaer och hazarer, m.fl. Nouruz är en sekulär högtid och härstammar från forniransk tid. Historiskt sett är den nära förknippad med zoroastrismen som var statsreligion i de persiska rikena under antiken: akemenider, parther och sasanider. För zoroastrier är nouruz en helig dag. Till de religiösa bekännare som över hela världen firar högtiden hör förutom zoroastrier även kopter, aleviter och bahá'íer [Wikipedia]
